"Proper time is also called clock time, or process time.
It is a measure of the amount of physical process that a
system undergoes. E.g. proper time for an ordinary mechanical
clock is recorded by the number of rotations of the hands of
the clock."

<< Pseudoscientists invent their own vocabulary in which
many terms lack precise or unambiguous definitions

Which is exactly what you've done. The definition of "proper
time" used by relativity is completely precise:

tau = integral of square-root(g_uv dx^u dx^v)

It has nothing to do with "distant clocks".

You are a charlatan.
